Have heard from 3 different unprovoked sources over the last few days that wabash has the best burger they have ever eaten.
Interesting.
Fundamentally untrue. I had their "Bash Burger" and was thoroughly disappointed for the following reasons that I will break down into two categories:
Things they can fix:
1) 32 minute wait time - I was there for lunch and it took a majority of my time off work to put a flat pattied burger in front of me. Taffer and Chef Brian Duffy would not approve.
2) Dr. Pepper Machine was flat - really? I mean REALLY?!
3) Plate lacked garnish - This is something I would expect from Tubby's but c'mon... can a brother get a piece of lettuce or AT LEAST a pickle on my plate!?
Things they cannot fix:
1) Skinny burger - If you're going to be a burger joint then maybe thicken that bad boy up a bit. Apparently "all the burgers come medium" but I cannot imagine the difference between medium and well when the patty is no thicker than a sticky note.
2) Diabetes - I'm just not sure why they needed to cover the entire bun in a whole stick of butter.
3) IHOP - It just tastes like it's not something they are good at. I had a distinct IHOP burger flashback when I ate the Bash Burger.
On a slightly unrelated note, I decided to give them a chance again last night by checking out their nightlife. I'll give it to them that it was a wedneday. HOWEVER, "our internet went out so we are going to sit here in silence" is just and excuse for me to take my business to one of the other twenty something bars within crawling distance.
Thoroughly disappointed.
